With regards to the 9 seater SNG - i need to know whether you are happy for it to be for the glory - (no entry fee / prize) If not it will be impossible for all of you to take part.
If you could post your views below, i'd appreciate it.
Tonight is Leg 3 of the Round-Robin SNG in Phase 2. So confusing, all these numbers!
But if tonight is anything like last night, it will be a RaliFest.
What drama last night, with every player featuring somehow, & the action went on very late, well past Midnight. And we saw some wonderfully constructed & presented Posts by the TP-ers as they reported in, one after the other. Well-Presented Posts are easy to read, & the easier they are to read, the better the message gets across.
The pressure is now rising inexorably, & tonight could be a stunner.
And it's not a Bankroll Challenge, but clearly, Bankroll levels & control is an element of it.
And ultimately, once it's down to 3, the Sky Poker players will decide who they think is the Sky Poker Total Player.
All still to play for TP-ers, & I send every single one of you a carrier bag chock-full of tikay Run-Good Vibes.
Final Evening underway and I wanted to play a few MTTs, and grind out in cash to reach my 6 hrs criteria. I was also looking forward to railing the TP SNG tonight after playing previously was really exciting to watch. Well done to Dohh and Phil for taking the top spots and Very Well played to the others.
2 hands into cash I get coolered for £100, both turned Nut St8 I hold AQ vs. AJ, all in. River brought 4 to a flush, he has Ac. So it just wasn’t happening in cash tonight for me, so I called it a day at 10pm. I hadn’t recouped my previous loss, and didn’t think it was worth playing further, at risk of losing more the way I had been running.
The 8pm Open went well. Finished 109th, after making some moves to increase my chips, and running into hands every time.
Alongside this I played the 7pm Forum Deep stack which I seemed to be crushing until the final table, there was 5 of us left when I lost 2 races within 5 minutes, and I think I bubbled the cash which was annoying, I wanted 1st though so wasn’t to bothered by that. So finished 5th/29.
I ended the last Hour by playing a HU SNG and also the £200 guar Mtt which started @ 10pm, I’m currently still in this, and hoping for a Final table if not win. Current position5th/9th

It has been a thoroughly enjoyable week, and the support and rail for all the TPers has been really great, so thanks everyone! The team spirit within the TPers has also been fantastic, and I wish everyone the best of Luck Saturday evening. It’s going to be so harsh losing 1 from each team, but I feel no matter what the outcome on Saturday this will be a great experience and learning curve to take with me in the future. Well played and Goodnight all.
I came 2nd in tonight's TPsng which, after last night's 1st should have me jumping for joy. However, a couple of things really got to me within the game which badly affected my state of mind - both for the sng and for the cash games afterwards.
3 handed and I button raise with QJ. Dohhhhhh shoves and I get sticky click on the laptop andmisclick call - he has 5,5 and we're racing............I lose and suddenly from being dominant and in control I'm now behind and tilting. In hindsight, I should have turned off the chat as that didnt help my state of mind with the jokey comments!!!
I get HUvsDohhhhhh and on a board of 2,7,8,9 all the money is in (Dohhhhh has 22 for set and i have 6,10 for straight) River binks the 8 and from being a card away from winning, I'm now behind in chips and the wind was proverbiably knocked from me!! TBH I never recovered for the night after that second blow and although I then got lucky myself with my 8,6 rivering to beat his JJ (although a much smaller pot) I never regained my usual composure. Congrats to Dohhhhhhh who played very well to take it down.
Played and lost a bit on cash with the main hand being my turned straight vs a rivered flush. I don't feel I played the hand bad, just felt it wasn't really gonna be my night!
Played 2 x mtt's and lost in both - main event with flopped straight vs higher flopped straight and the other with JJ vs A6.............just not my night!
Final Bankroll £824.07
I'll post a bit more when I've reflected more on the night but need to take away the positives from the 3 nights:
Made £240 profit
Won 1 and came 2nd in other TP sng
Came 35th in Primo
Played solidly without any real mistakes (misclick the exception) against quality players
Over the 6 TP nights, I made profit in 5 of them which I must take heart over as well.
Cheers for all the railing and support over the last few days too. Well wishes have been greatly appreciated
Decided to really go for it tonight! Felt I had to win big with my small roll to get a look in! Even though I think I have the best mtt record of our group. Gambled a bit with cash but it never worked out! Lost a big pot to Sparce which was just an epic cooler He raises 2 callers I squeeze QQ folds back to him he shoves I snap call he has KK! GG! was about a £440 pot I think so would of been a nice addition to my roll and possibly could of changed my chances!
As for the SNG just couldn't get any hands thought I played well enough really had no cards most of the time and was making do with what I could.
Took a big hit when Dohhh hero called me with 8s. It seemed after that Phil hit the deck in ridiculous fashion especially versus me blind on blind too.
And there was nothing I could do really. Think had the competition been a bit longer I would of shone alot more but thats Poker and I accept my fate that is I am most certainly out!
Roll ended on £199
Gg folks gn and gl everyone for the next stage! (Especially my friend and fellow team mate Sharky!)
Hey guys, Im not gonna go into detail tonight, as I don't feel very well, and want to go to bed.
I will post more about my night, and my thoughts tomorrow morning.
I ended the night on £400 - give or take 63 pence
Very proud of myself tonight. I havent had chat on at all, apart from a brief convo with James, so apologies to anyone who supported me in the chatbox.
And James I just saw ur comment as I exited the BH, It's copps18@HM,com

Yup, the money is irrelevant, we all should be involved!
